Mellor v. Mellor (Child Custody)
Nevada Supreme Court · Decided June 1, 2015
Mellor v. Mellor (Child Custody)

Opinion

920, 605 P.2d 196 (1979). The district court's written order of January 6, 2015, specifically provides that the matter is continued for further evidentiary proceedings, based on appellant's express request for the continuance. The minute order of December 24, 2014, is likewise not final for the same reasons. See also Rust v. Clark Cnty. Sch. Dist., 103 Nev. 686, 688-89, 747 P.2d 1380, 1381-82 (1987) (explaining that a minute order is ineffective for any purpose and cannot be appealed, and that a written order or judgment must be filed before a district court ruling can be appealed). The notice of appeal is premature under NRAP 4(a) because the district court has not entered a final written judgment adjudicating all the rights and liabilities of all the parties. Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED. 2
